4. The Most Golden Of Oldies

Another piece of Derelicts memorabilia nearly lost in the mists of time, discarded as just another tatty bit of typed paper. But oh so much more than that. Surely?

This bit was found by Michael Levey deep in his catacombes, alongside his own personal muscle linament recipe and an assortment of nail-in leather studs. It lists a catalogue of miscreants and potted descriptions.

They were involved in an end-of-season match in the mid 80s, an excellent advert for club social rugby. There are at least 50 names here, many still part and parcel of the current fabric of the club.
